Hi Eireman1916

Wave FM (Blackpool) is on 96.5 MHz - its power is only 100 W, though, so you'll need a good set-up to receive it reliably in Dublin.

Coast FM (Rhyl) is on 96.3 MHz - not sure about the power, but very probably similar.

HTH

:cool:

Coast fm is a great station,I doubt that it would reach Dublin though.
I'm open to correction here but,I dont think online streaming of web radio would use up much of a bradband cap unless you were using it 24-7 for a long while.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY GOOD SET UP LIKE A RDS RADIO OR A REALY BIG AERIAL?

Hi Eireman1916

If you can put up a big aerial, preferably quite high, you might be in with a chance, but reception might depend on weather conditions. It's also possible that other stations on the same frequency might interfere. I think that Coast FM is actually broadcast from Llanddona, but at a low power.

If I Got A Realy High Aerial What Other Channels Will I Get

Roxof

Hi Eireman1916


Well, BBC Radio 1, 2, 3, 4, Cymru and Wales from Llanddona; possibly Champion FM from Caernarfon (103.0 MHz); and Manx Radio. There must be more to add - come on, folks, what FM DX do you get in Dublin?

:cool:

Quite a few English ILR stations make it into Dublin on AM (mediumwave)
